It is with great sadness that I must advise you that the Outsider Folk Art Gallery will be scaling down its operations over the next few months.

A few years ago I moved to Leesburg, Virginia to be close to my family. The Gallery, opened in 2005, closed its location at the GoggleWorks Center for the
Arts in Reading, PA and became an on-line Gallery, continuing to highlight well-established Folk and Outsider artists, as well as the new and upcoming artists
that we found and supported. I now find that I am no longer able to give the Gallery the time it needs and deserves.

Our website will continue to display the work of some of our local artists: David Big Dutch" Nally, Sybil Roe Thompson, Brent Brown, Mary Stoudt and Jim Bloom.
Brent has a show at York College in May and Mary has a show in Lancaster in June. We want to continue the website for now so these artists will have a place to showcase
their work.

In addition, the website will continue to show some of the Folk Art and Outsider Art owned by the Gallery and myself.

Our Manager, Diane Hill, may continue with the website after the Gallery closes. We will keep you advised of all further developments.

In the meantime, the Gallery is offering a 25% discount on all Sybil and Brent artwork.

Below is a list of contacts of some of the artists we have been so proud to share with you. We hope you will continue to support their excellent talents.
